MORE New Secrets of Xenoblade 3 (ft. Xenosaga) 

"A is a woman whose sex is monado" is the best thing i think ive heard from an art book

Luxin being able to make a 40 minute video on like 10 pages of content never fails to baffle me

"We dont need to Ship-of-Theseus Noah" is a world-class stealth pun. Im honestly impressed.

I remember in an older video you talked about the concept of bringing in Xenosaga to the Xenoblade universe as part of Xenoblade 3. It's pretty cathartic to see something like it unfolding now with the connections hinted at in Future Redeemed. I genuinely hope Bandai Namco is willing to collaborate with Monolith Soft and Nintendo for this to become a reality. It'd be a massive pay off to something that was started over 20 years ago.

I think Lucky 7 actually had Juju in it and that is why Noah yeeted it off a cliff lol

It's always funny hearing Luxin say the video is going to be short in a half hour video.

Luxin uploads, Me: *I AM SPEED*

Something to note, during the ending scene of xbc3: fr, shulk calls A, Alvis, aka, the being ontos was before both A and Alpha, implying that they are one being again.

Also yes, that is literally what Rex described in that cutscene. When Shulk asks A "Why do you look like that" referring to the fact that A looks feminine rather than masculine, Rex chimes in and says "Ontos (the original being) was somewhere inbetween male and female", when Ghondor split the two he split the masculine and female aspects in two forming Alpha and A. He wasn't talking about A specifically when Rex said "Ontos" he was talking about Ontos as the full being prior to being split. So A is specifically female and Alpha is specifically male going into the anima and animus stuff again. Ontos got information from both Logos (logic) and Pnuema (emotion) so when Ghondor hit Alpha with his attack it split them into the Logic and emotion, however A kept all the memories which allowed her to operate on her own developed Logic alongside emotion while Alpha was merely the logic left over which is why A didn't go all ape shit with emotion like a certain Xenosaga boss, she had context and memory to form her own logic. You can see this take action in the game such as A letting Glimmer run away to learn for herself where she belongs, that was A operating on both her own emotion and logic, its also why even though A is still Alvis from Xenoblade 1, her over fixiation on emotion can sometimes make her a bit more aggressive like how we see she gets frustrated with Matthew throughout the game, unlike Alvis from Xeno 1 who always stays cool and collected. However back to the Rex cutscene, the problem is people really misinterpreted that cutscene into him saying "she's non-binary/genderfluid" when in reality all he was doing was explaining why she looks female.

"british people exist" - luxin, 2024

I had a great mistranslation as well before google settled in that said "I was really happy to be able to breed Shulk" before switching to "...draw Shulk" and I was not fast enough to capture it sadly. Google self-corrects too quickly. But "A woman whose sex is Monado" is so, so good too.

Something I recently realized - at the end of Xenoblade 3, Noah is metaphorically (possibly LITERALLY) the avatar of a United Trinity Processor. N wields Logos’s power, Noah wields Penuma, and Lucky Seven has multiple things that associate it with Ontos. Gameplay wise, Lucky Seven & Grant Vision are the only talent Artes with their own, dedicated, Timers. Furthermore, the only things that are shown cutting Flame Clocks, besides Lucky Seven, are the Blades wielded by Shulk & Rex. Finally, the art book revealed that Lucky Seven has a special connection to Fiora, who in turn wielded Ontos’s Monado, in the past. Ontos has a thing for Split/Duel Wield swords; like how A & Alpha each wielded one while fighting the other!

My main thing is, if Xenosaga takes place after the worlds re fuse at the end of 3, why was Dimitry Yuriev mentioned on the radio in Klaus’s era, which was way before Bionis/Alrest? I personally think it is probably something like Klaus era/Xenosaga - Bionis/Alrest - Aionios- Earth returns and Kos mos returns and was floating in space for a lot longer than we think.

My kingdom, my kingdom for someone to translate and patch Xenosaga 1 & 2 ds 😔

I am so excited for the future of Xenoblade

Me, realizing Alvis had other bodies before being Alvis due to the line of "long line of seers": ...how did I not realize this before? That means... Alvis is The Doctor! /j In all seriousness, never realized how that line of dialogue makes a lot more sense once we're introduced to A. Edit: Okay, I paused this video to write this comment RIGHT before Luxin called Alvis The Doctor so egg on my face. XD

If true Malos second coming, then makes sense the post 1000 years of Aionios before it "destroyed" and recreated again.

I hope there's a Xenosaga remaster

More amazing content! Thank you so much for all you do for the community!

While we may not have Matthew actually age, we do know the ages of two of his childhood friends in Dillon and Clarity who are 23 and 24, which means he has to be about the same age so its probably 22 at the youngest and 26 at the oldest. Na'el is harder to pin down, but i will say say she is of similar age to Mickey, the guy who has a crush on her, so probably late teens say 18 to 20

And fixed! Thank you again for all you do. 💜

Was there some kind of consensus about Ontos/Alpha/A that i completely missed out on this while time? I had always figured that Ontos was simultaneously fully male and fully female (possibly more God references with Jesus being fully God and fully man aka the Hypostatic Union), the male interacting with logos and the female interacting with pneuma, then when he was split by Ghondor, the male part split into alpha, him having a much more cold, logical, calculating personality derived from interaction with logos (logic), while A was the female part, her a more emotional, compassionate personality derived from interaction with pneuma ("breath"/spirit)

Always a good month when Luxin uploads

Fascinating stuff about A! Love this art book info, also throwing the sword into the ocean has spawned some great memes

Wahoo more luxin content

Honestly the whole thing about information being absent in xenoblade 3’s art book when the information is clearly there is also something that applies to the wiki as well. For example, Glimmer and Mio are clearly Rex’s children with Pyra and Nia respectively, but the wiki has edited out several times that they’re both his kids for some reason. As well as the fact that in Glimmer’s page, she is said to be “hinted” to be raised by Rex as opposed to Nikol’s page where he’s outright stated to be Shulk’s son. So yeah, even the wiki has that problem. Even with Panacea as well, as her name is clearly a reference to Sharla, she looks like Sharla, and her spear even resembles Reyn’s gun lance but they don’t even say in her page that she’s even implied to be Sharla or Reyn’s daughter. But when Linka, she’s said to be the daughter of Zeke and Pandoria in both her and their pages. Honestly I could say other examples like how Lucky Seven visually looks like the monado or how the “of the end” aspect of the name of the sword of the end further implies and hammers home the idea that Pneuma is within Noah’s sword as well, but as is, it’s a problem the wiki has as well

16:45 this has been my interpretation since the game came out

Omg you just dropping that you don’t want KOSMOS to be repaired by Tora towards the end is hilarious

16:50 Wasn't that the consensus from the beginning? I don't follow the wider community that much so I don't know for sure but most of the time I heard about it people viewed it that way.

the next Ontos incarnation being voiced by David Tenant or Christopher Eccleston sounds hilarious.

The return of space Jesus!

Obviously, Xeno takes more Christian inspiration than and Hinduism, but I’ve always thought that the Trinity processor was like reference to the trimuti of shiva the destroyer logos vishnu the preserver pneuma and brahma the creator ontos

collective unconscious collapse != heat death

Dammit, now I want to try and design a Monado Sonic Screwdriver

Babe wake up Luxin posted again

Glad im not the only person with the humanity becomes the samaarians theory So many things would make sense like why mira has nopon and a telethia and could explain the "Something about this planet" as a prossessor and monado situation manipulating reality around the planet Xenoblade X really could be Xenoblade 10

Making A the Xenoblade version of Doctor Who would rule actually

The king has returned.

I thought it was clear that Alvis was supposed to represent the Monad. A perfect being that embodies all aspects of humanity in balance. When they split into two imperfect aspects, they skewed one way or the other. A is the feminine aspect motivated by Alvis' emotions and compassion and Alpha is the masculine aspect motivated by cold logic. So, in short, Alvis is they, Alpha is he, and A is she. Though, frankly, I dont think Alvis themselves would care much how they were defined by such terms.

that Trinity Processor theory sounds like it's straight out of a Super Robot Wars plotline

I forgot what the theme is that plays at 28:30 please help

Luxin must be sweating so hard to figure this all out that he's standing on a beach.

Yeah the line chaos gives about earth being the "land of origin" and the key to surviving the universe's collapse makes so much sense its kinda crazy. I mean you dont even need to use the zohar to travel to a new universe, origin is literally a machine designed to recreate a universe after its been annihilated. What's crazy is this means that chaos was fully aware what was going on in the other pocket universes. Personally i still think that chaos actually had a hand in creating the trinity processor and placed his influence/likeness into ontos, i mean if humanity was messing around with the zohar at the time he'd probably want to keep tabs on it. And thinking more on it, if he did put a piece of himself into ontos that would explain why he knew what was happening in the other universes, cus ontos was watching it the entire time So its pretty locked in now that the saga universe was happening at the same time as the blade universes and all 3 linked back together in future redeemed. But that still leaves xenoblade X, i still cant quite figure out how that one fits in. I'm very much in the theory that mira is infact a 2nd aionios, that the universe did infact collapse as predicted and they used origin a 2nd time to create a patchwork planet of different worlds (seriously look at concept art of mira), and would explain how lao returned at the end. The main problem is trying to figure out who these ghosts are in this story, where did the aliens come from (since saga makes a point that there arnt any). And then, why does this all start on earth in the confirmed year 2054 AD despite it clearly needing to be after future redeemed to make any sense. If we can just figure out those 3 points, we can piece together the whole story. Also i guess the question on can we fit xenogears in there somewhere, to make the complete xeno-story Ohh, here's a thought that just came to mind. We're all set on that was indeed kosmos falling to earth after future redeemed, and that she will get repaired. Given the heavy implications that mira is a 2nd use of origin we can infer it must be after future redeemed too (date issue aside). It always was interesting that elma's true form looks ALOT like kosmos but given this sequence of events, is it actually possible elma genuinely is kosmos rebuilt with a new personality?

Two thoughts. a more symbolic means of fixing Kos-mos might not just having shulk and Rex fix her.. but also the blades Kos-Mos and Tel-os involved in the process as well, possibly in somesort of willing sacrifice/merger with them (or just the blade Kos-mos). they should be around somewhere It would also result in a Kos-mos that is of both series. Second: Time Effery is very possible in this series. I can easily see the Trinity processor and the universe fail-safe being one and the same on some level, and the male and female halves took different non-linear paths through time to get there..

32:40 Malos, Alvis and Mythra? If these 3 characters are "reborn" from the Xenosaga Trio? There are similarities.

Takahashi is alluding to Xenosaga with almost everything in the artbook interview. He calls Noah a Ubersmench which is very important as a concept in Nietzsche. Guess where Xenosaga’s titles come from? Nietzsche, lol. Then the thing with the radio which is just called a “certain something” we all know it is Vector at this point and they blur it out in the artbook. We already know that Vector is in future redeemed and will likely have something to do with Xenoblade 4 or a Xenosaga remaster. Things started lining up slowly for Xenosaga in the last year. We got future redeemed, a tales of rays collab for KOS-MOS as a playable character with Velvet and Kanono + Laphicet getting T-ELOS, chaos and M.O.M.O outfits. Lastly, we got the Xenosaga piano collection coming which is conveniently called across the Kosmos and it’s officially licensed by Bandai Namco… who were also in the special thanks credits for future redeemed, not to mention Xenosaga is in Xenoblade 3’s intellectual properties. At this point, the land of Origin thing is no coincidence and definitely real. Takahashi doesn’t bring back stuff and then refuse to elaborate on it. He even said Origin is still a secret and didn’t explain it much unless it was vague terms in the artbook interview. Origin may definitely return. While I don’t think full blown Xenosaga characters will be appearing in 4, I do believe that Xenosaga will be heavily used and we won’t see the Xenosaga characters aside from KOS-MOS for a couple of years.

5:27 The in-game chibi Monica with eyepatch doesn't actually have the House Vandham sigil on it, it's just black.

7:09 am I tripping, or does it look like in the concept art there Nikol does actually have a 9th term marker? Glimmer looks as well. If you compare to the list of markers a bit later (7:22), the 10th term marker has almost lost all red colour. Neither looks like they're almost expired.

To add to the whole "how are they gonna bring back Malos" thing. I think once they reconstruct Malos' core that his new driver should be Noah. Noah already has a connection to Malos since N used the lucky 7 Malos was in, and it'd just be very neat to have all 3 protagonists from the trilogy be bonded to one member of the trinity processor. Rex already has Pneuma, Shulk has Ontos, Noah can have Logos.

Here’s a question. We know that the events of Aionios “unhappen” like a dream after the destruction of Aionios, and things like Rex and Shulk’s injuries won’t be present outside of Aionios, so will the Alpha part of Ontos return or is that different given its part of the Trinity Processor? Asked this before watching the full video 🤦‍♂️

i don't remember where i say this but here its again "i believe that Ontos/Alvis/a has power over Time, Logos/Malos has the power over Matter, and Pneuma/Pyra/Mythra Have power over Space." how i came to that is Ontos/Alvis/a can see in to past, present, and future. Logos/Malos can deconstructed/obliterate Matter, he may also be able to reconstructed Matter. Pneuma can warp space to make something move Faster, and open hole in space between two place to fire a shot off into a building. I believe Logos core is in a gas like state and i believe Ontos is now in two parts, one part is in past and the other part is present.

I'm pretty sure the implication is that A and Alpha reunite at the end, for whatever that's worth.

"He's Beginning to Believe" - Morpheus X / Saga are (going to be retconned into) canon

Alright so, I know Xenosaga is now tied up to Xenoblade and stuff but are we really sure they WILL use Xenosaga stuff that heavely honnestly ? I like to theorize and stuff too but maybe let's not jump that much into conclusion ? I really doubt they will use that much of content from Xenosaga. I'd like to be wrong but one big philosophy from Monolith since Xenoblade 1 is to have every game being its own thing despite being connected... All i'm saying is maybe we shouldn't hype this possibility too much since it's, honnestly really likely, that they just goes with something 90% different for the next game

Tora is the one who built the Origin part of Alrest, so he has more knowledge than Riku when dealing with a Zohar emulator that resets two whole worlds with the power of one of the Trinity processor cores of which he himself already had contact through Pyra and Mythra. Tora is more suited to rebuilding and upgrading someone like KOSMOS

I identify as "Monado"

So are Big Joe and Mintia also the equivalent of Moebius in the “real” universe.

Name: A Sex: Monado Age: Yes

Assigned Monado at birth.

Xenoblade X is Xeno 10 i think.

[mild saga spoilers] I always wondered what saga4 would be like. i thought it be interesting if saga descendants came back to lost Jerusalem and ran into a testament guarding the newly relocated zohar, and turns out to be jesus. and you find out that jesus (who was just a normal man) was jealous of chaos' powers, and made a deal with wilhelm who was a roman emperor at that time, and stages his own death in the crucifixion to become a testament and gain powers and dominion over earth and its people. this would make sense for the roman empire to absorb Christianity (that later becomes ormus) and wilhelm leaves jesus to guard plank scale earth (or at least the space around it) when the events of saga happened. and saga 4 begins with chaos having to deal with his past and gives more backstory to the whole "ancient times/relics of god/mary" thing before figuring out how to save the universe.

Hear me out, what if they did the RE7 wordplay - Xenoblade Chronicles 4: Xenosaga/ Xenosaga 4:Xenoblade Chronicles. Be cool to tie things together after a potential Saga remake

A should be able to reconstruct Ontos the same way Logos rebuilt himself. Also Ontos recieves male imputs from Logos per Rex’s conversation. Shouldn’t be a problem.

I think Ship of Theseus is irrelevant to Xenoblade as the existence of souls transferring between vessels has been established. Unlike Star Trek where they die whenever they use a teleporter.

14:45 "My Gender is DOOM" equivalent of the Xenoverse lmao

lmao the Doctor is Ontos confirmed. New favorite headcannon. Doctor Who spoilers ahead: Alvis & A had the first bi-generation, 7 months ahead of the 14th/15th Doctors. But Xenoblade takes place in the future of our world, so I guess DW did it first, and by now Ontos/The Doctor have perfected the process? Well, maybe not perfected as Alvis turned 'evil'. Though perhaps that's intended, Ontos wanted to purge that part from themselves. Though in the latest episode or two Ncuti said it would kill him to do it again, so ... maybe not.

Xenoblade x-cross chronicles would make great name for a collaboration game

15:03 sadly they exist

Can we just say to simplify and make everything somewhat sensical: Xenoblade takes place where Earth was seald away by "Wilhelm/Klaus" (possibly same entity and great way to buy some copyright negotiating time🤔?) so dates and times can be completely off sync due to demential shifts yet still be linear towards his bigger story? So now Wilhelm/Klaus is gone, Earth is back and boom we got ourselves a tie in for the next game.

6:14 I think you said 9th instead of 10th here on accident.

Speaking of Dr. Who, the reason Rex and Shulk's age isn't known might be because of timey wimey stuff. It was implied that the cycles have been going on maybe even tens of thousands of times/years, but it was also implied that time doesn't progress at all, so it could be that the two protags were stuck in the time bubble in their 40's and lived/fought for thousands of years without aging a day. Might also explain why they were so hands-off and harsh with their implied *children* if those children were the 583rd identical clone and they've been thoroughly desensitized to it.

Astelle. All I'm saying is-- why the fuck is Astelle Harbor a thing in the City in Xc3? why is Astelle still a character past the KOS-MOS Blade Quest?

I think being 18 in your 9th term makes sense, you’re sent at the end of your tenth year, so for your tenth year you are 19 years old. During your first term you are 10. I think that checks out.

16:44 duh

Why does a radio have concept art

We don't actually know if Alpha is dead, and I suspect there is a chance that they are still alive. Alpha is specifically classified as a fogbeast when fought at the end of the game, and since the artbook states that fogbeasts are projections intruding from other realities and a major plot point is that Alpha needs an avatar in order to work in Aionios, it is entirely possible that when Alpha was defeated, they weren't slain, just forcibly and permanently disconnected from Aionios, and we may have to retreive Alpha in a future game - and this isn't nessesarily contradictory with your theory about A's future, as that could be how they jury rig things to open the way to get to where Alpha is, since if I am right about Alpha still being alive, they would be located either outside of any reality or in another currently unknown pocket universe.

Takahashi mustve played BG3 and thats why he is on about expressions👀👀👀

The way I've chosen to interpret the "A is a woman" thing in the art book is simply that Ontos decided to use a (biologically) female body for this incarnation, it's no different from them chosing a masculine body when they were Alvis, just a thing they can do when chosing how they will appear

I think all the people on the city will have mostly the same parents and dna. why you might ask ? because like takahashi said, noah rejects the idea of nihilism, the parents of other poeple on thecity will get in love with the same people they fell in love in origin but they will have a better life, everyone will do. their destinys or their souls thanks to the live on aionios will have something rewritten that will be some kind of six sense. why the answer is on earth, thats because the people on earth together passed a test to escape purgatory. now when their souls join the collective unconscious. they will help to stabilize the universe. now people might try to kill everyone on earth to make this proccess faster thats when malos( jesus )comes to save us to take us to heaven

Does it explain anywhere why Nael is still a cat girl? As far as i've seen no one born in aionios shows any extra racial traits despite surely having parents of the various races and to top it all off they are just as blind to race as the soldiers they're born from. Even her direct brother and grandfather aren't cat people, why does she have extra race traits? literally no one else does.

Until they created Xenoblade 3 I did not believe that 2 needed a sequal If we are getting a sequal in a way then I want all Heroes to be seen in the story, find out if all have ages and same lifespan and also will everyone keep their memories And if the City people are to be reborn then the blood familiar with them should be detached. But the most important thing, WHERE IS MYTHRAS CHILD!!!! And is Cry’s Shulks first son?

The A thing is easy to accept, honestly Alvis and Alpha are males, after all Is Ontos as a core the one who's non binary

I still don't get how people still can't understand Ontos/Ousia in terms of sex, gender and concept. Ousia is a computer, we all know that. Prior to XB3 Ousia used Alvis as its way to communicate to the world, an avatar, who obviously looks like a male or man. He also kept being referred to as one. XB3 comes around and a female or womanlike breaks out from Alvis called A. Shulk meeting this new version of Alvis is a bit confused over the way she looks, and Rex pitches in that Ousia was the core conceptually in between Logos and Pneuma, the male and female part or logic and reason of the trinity processor. Which in turn heavily implies that as said in the video, Ousia can change its appearance between a male and female avatar (for now). Could very well be that it can communicate as an animal in the future if the trinity processor ever comes around again. What I'm trying to say is that A and Alvis, despite being avatars of Ousia seems to be their own entities with their own personality and quirks. A theory I have is that Ousia as a being actually appears in a technical sense before everyone as Alvis (or Alpha in XB3) and during Alvis's defeat, as A. The core crystal Alvis wear glows a lot during the DLC UNTIL his imminent defeat with Ouroboros activating, then A's core starts shining the same way as crazy and during the whited out scenery with Alvis's last pleas his core crystal's light has faded. So I think that Ousia was present throughout XB3 personally. It presented itself to Shulk, so they could attach the core to Origin, giving Ousia access to the system. It presented itself to Na'el to start pushing the plan after it's "defeat" against Shulk, Rex and Z. It presented Klaus's world to Matthew and the others to show them how amazing it was, but how hubris ruined a civilization that barely scratched the surface of its potential. It presented itself with the two other trinity processor to activate Ouroboros. It is a computer with extremely good capability of predicting the future almost to a fault. Ousia knew the collision would happen. Ousia knew Origin and whatever happens in there would play out. But Ousia wanted to test humanity one more time to see if they can face this uncertain future even if it can lead down the same path as Klaus's. Which is why Alvis, as himself and not as Ousia, smiles towards the end. Ousia is now in A and will take Alvis's spot as an administrative entity of Origin, and Shulk even calls her "Alvis", which to me seems whatever entity was in Alvis has now moved to A. She also claims, with the core crystal shining, she can see the future clear as day. Just like how Alvis said he could see the future. Also, don't compare Ontos to the doctor. I'm still a bit salty, not because of Whittaker, but how incompetent the writers are. She could have easily been one of the best doctors if the writers didn't mess around with the lore so much, which has been a downward spiral since 11. In the end, Xenoblade is a game with endless potential. It has a central world, universe and a creator with a lot of imagination. It sucks that Takahashi is getting a bit on the old side, but I am happy Xenogears, Xenosaga and Xenoblade exists.

let's differentiate between sex and gender, as they are two different concepts. Your sex is defined by the physical attributes you are born with, determining whether you are male or female, while your gender is how you consciously categorize yourself in society, whether as a man, woman and so on. The art book refers to A as 女性, meaning female. We could easily assume from A's appearance that they are indeed a female, but that has no bearing on their gender. With Rex's explanation, and the way the characters treat A in the game, we can conclude that A's gender is non-binary, while physically being female.

thank you for laying out all of the stuff about A like that, i generally also took it not to mean anything different from the base game. ontos the ai is in between femininity and masculinity and has likely taken on male and female forms as the "family line" of the high entia seers. A is another feminine form but since the story and the character dont have much reason to hide A's identity as a facet of ontos, neutral or no pronouns are used across translations to emphasize this aspect of ontos. Mainly it does kinda suck that people will (and have already been doing this) look at this statement and use it as an excuse to misgender A or just be generally insulting to other xenoblade fans, but hey twitters gonna twitter.

I love lore discussion videos but 5 whole ass minutes about two meaningless printing errors described as heresy is a bit annoying ngl

no, the reason why alpha and A are male and female and immoral and moral respectively is because they're following the xenogears/saga themes for the trinity, the kadomony trinity theming. the female, pnuema, is known as anima and is the morally good part. the male, logos, is known as animus, the immoral chaotic part, and then the one above them, the neutral, ontos, is known as persona, which is the one that has anima and animus debate on it then persona gets the commands and sends them to the conduit/zohar. the way the trinity processors work, any morally good part is a female anima or pneuma and any chaotic immoral one is a male animus or logos. so when ontos/persona split and the good part that made up alvis became A, alvis became another female anima, another pneuma basically. and alpha on the other hand became a chaotic male animus without emotions for the most part acting only like a computer. this is also why when pyra and rex had their kid glimmer, she was female, its most likely any morally good kid the trinity has will be female and an anima, like glimmer.

Luxin had a nice and safe conclusion to A being referred to as a woman in the art book. But I think most other people don't realize that pronouns, gender (though if someone wants to be semantic, I do mean specifically gender identity, but I'm going to shorten it from hereon), and sex are all distinct concepts. A being referred to as a woman does not automatically retcon the fact that A does not use pronouns at all. A doesn't need to identify as nonbinary to adopt subversive pronouns. See the various cisgender/transgender people who accept they/them or nonbinary people who accept he/him or she/her. Why do you think people specify them in the first place? People are playing 5D chess attempting to justify calling A a 'she' when the game keeps it pretty simple, as it never refers to A as such. A is not nonbinary in the way Juniper is, A is a woman, but A is also not a 'her.' Sex: Monado Gender: Woman Pronouns: n/A A is an exhausting topic, I don't want to talk about A anymore.

Xenosaga is going to be completely retconned you shouldn't make that wild theories

Another interpretation of the A gender situation (hah, agender) is that Ontos is some flavor of genderfluid, and different incarnations are simply a man or a woman. Which was my interpretation of the confusing way the game data refers to A as female despite everything else pointing otherwise- Ontos is between male and female, but A is a woman, and the neutral way A is referred to is acknowledging that *they* are nonbinary, even if this incarnation is a woman. Like saying “they are genderfluid, but are [presenting as] a woman right now”. That said, it does feel like if that’s the intent then they would have gone about it differently. But it’s an idea, and A being the feminine half of Ontos doesn’t quite feel right to me either (feels kinda arbitrary to me, and there isn’t much evidence in support of it beyond the presentations of A and Alpha, without dipping into ‘not wanting to kill everyone is stereotypically feminine’)

"Important supplemental material"? It's _supplemental._ That word by definition means it's not important.

Kos mos getting repaired by Tora will be so -freak- *peak* fiction. 🥲
